I see all of these roms that look like ICS but I have yet to see anyone include the ICS boot animation wassup with that ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Amd4life:
works great for me, nice update
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
Its a boot animation? So what?

Calks rom has it, but its ugly with the boot animation. Low quallity imo

And gtg has it aswell,

cant remember about the others.

so which other roms are you talking about?

Just loaded this up and seems to be running smooth and fast. I noticed that there is an issue with the wallpaper selector for the lock screen. The size of the box is wrong and when you select the wallpaper, it is stretched. This is an issues with el13. Any chance to update this in the new version? thanks.

It does feel like my wifi speed is like a/b sometimes, but would a modem affect wifi? I thought that was all kernel related?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Dunno. I'm not sure what the modem.bin file handles. I do know that CDMA and WiFi are separate chips on this phone though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
There's def something a little sluggish unrelated to the kernel, just flashed a dif el13 rom with same kernel and got 1000+ higher on benchmarks, I understand benchmarks aren't everything la di da, but when you get 2750 on one rom, and 4040 on another with the same kernel, there's something up with the rom. I like it, but somethings up
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Magick72:
Lag still there after rebooting a few times.

I have rebooted a few times and cleared cache before, rebooted some more with no cache clearing.. Nothing is getting rid of the lag.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
You got 4040 on Quandrant without overclock? What ROM was that? In my comparison, it seems like Blazer has a lower CPU score while everything else remained pretty much the same. This is stock ROM (~3300) vs Blazer (~2800).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Not sure about quadrants but this is my linpack after about ten runs back to back. Running deperado kernel. No over clock just under volt. EL13 modem and V2 blazer.

Phantom what are the CyanogenMod Libs?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
I agree quadrant scores don't mean a thing if I'm correct quadrant standard isn't even set up for to even read dual core phones and when the second core is tweaked you will get lower scores at least when I had my evo 3d that was the case.it only detects one core

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...v_HwCA&usg=AFQjCNFPKsLzmRMoGkXtXw-9la30-BNiuA
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Yeah. Honestly I never use them. And when I do I use something like linpack. I have seen quadrants so far off it isn't even funny. So they really aren't the most reliable. The one thing I do like about linpack is it has a multi thread test for dual core or quad core phones. So it does give ya the option for that. But still I rely on real world testing more then I do that. Cause you can't dispute what kind of results you get over days of use.

I agree I also judge how fast the phone is by titanium back up if loads up in a second and can restore a app in a sec or a little more then the phone is fast I learned that from king when I had my evo 3d and was running his and caulks roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greg di:
Nice work (again), Phantom!

Loaded it last night and haven't seen any issues yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
To say they don't mean "anything" when there's a 30% change with the same kernel is just silly. You make it sound like there's a little gnome just making up scores inside our phones. They can certainly be an aid as an indicator, to completely dispel them is excessive

And besides, I also noticed higher OS, System, and battery usage. It was more than putting two and two together. I am not knocking the work, feedback was requested and this is the forum for it - meant for it to be constructive, not negative
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I'm not saying they are useless. But I will say that they are taken way to seriously sometimes.

Sent from a Blazed SGS II
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
not saying that at all they are deffinetly a gauge but quadrant standard isnt built to test dual cores. when they got both cores running at the same time on the evo 3d you score was around 2700 when in reality that score wasnt even close the phone was much faster than that. but it doesnt stop me from using it its just not going to be accurate when your testing a dual core phone. they still have the nexus one as the fastes phone time to update. I have been told by several devs the quadrants dont mean a thing but i agree with you they are an aid as a indicator. im not dismissing them but people cant say there is somthing wrong with a rom because of a score it depends on that persons set up how many apps do they have on their phone things like that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
I agree, it was the last thing I used to "test". I feel that just some observations have made me out to be some "benchmark test Guy", which is not the case. Just thought it was interesting to see such a big difference. And with that, I will drop it and cease hijacking this thread :) love everything phantom puts out so didn't want to come across as unsupportive - I've always had poor tact lol

Edit: Prob just different mount options in place? Which I understand would be something that mainly makes benchmark scores pop, and not much else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
You are in no way comming across that way thats why these threads are here so we can all discuss things like this. i would say if that persons scores continue to be way lower than everyone elses then there is a problem somewhere.

How do I download this Rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Atreides Spawn:
FYI

Running v2.0, EK02 modem, constant WiFi / GPS, auto sync, defaults otherwise ...

After full charge, wiping battery stats, draining, second full charge:

27+ hours of battery life under normal use & still at 6%.

Under same usage patterns and same procedure, no other roms (e.g., Caulk 1.5, StarBurst 1.x) make it past 17 hours to the same point for me.

I am impressed and plan on sticking to this setup unless PH's final build promises a similar XP.

Very nice work on this one! You have really pushed the limits of the E4GT past the already lofty status that stock currently enjoys across the market. THANKS

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nacron:
Spent a few hours today backing up and installing this. Looks good, was hoping it was at least an EK02 rom, but it'll do. I was already running EG30 with EK02 kernel, but the ICS theme is nice. I updated to the beta right after but I missed the ICS theme so I went back. I'll keep an eye on this thread for when the beta gets the ICS theming.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Thank Me Later:

how the hell do u install the el13???? i tried flashing it over the v2.0 and when its booting up all i get is a black screen????? any suggustions..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rksand:
My experience: flashed beta 2 over 2.0. First boot took a long time while dalvik cache was rebuilt, wait it out. Screen was laggy. I noticed the flash borked my Swype beta install. Once I removed it with Titanium Backup and redownloaded it, Swype works fine and the lag is gone.

Nice job PH! Looking forward to the final release.

Awww man lol after having v1.2 for the past 3 weeks or so w/ EG30. I started to get the update notifications since last night lol.

Will probably update to v2.0 tonight. The only other ROM I've used was the Starburst ROM (not to say that wasn't a great ROM as well), but I don't think that holds a candle to this. I look forward to donating in the close future!

Yes it does work I can't remember if it was you who figured it out if so thank you very much its the easiest way it should have a sticky because people can still do profile and prl updates its been 3 days or more it hasn't once popped up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t3hcyborg:
Hey Phantom,

First off, thanks for your work! It's really awesome to have a dev like you supporting the E4GT!

Anyway, I wanted to give you my input on Blazer. I've been using StarBurst since 1.2, and I really love it. After you have pretty much dropped support for it, I decided I would flash over to Blazer, and I must say, I was pretty disappointed. Here's why:

The theme is really terrible. The progress bars look really bad, and the whole "dark, neon-blue shadow" thing looks really unprofessional; like a really bad honeycomb wannabe. I know you didn't design the theme, but I figured I'd voice my opinion on how poor it looks overall.

On the theme issue, I also really disliked the amount of overscroll you included in this ROM. It seems like it's way too much. The whole scroll-past and bounce-back thing is really old and it looks choppy on the ROM.

Next up, the extended toggle app is really buggy. After arranging and rearranging the buttons, they would often reset and all show up. >>Not to mention that there is no 4G toggle, which especially sucks for a phone that has "4G" in it's name!<<

Lastly, the inclusion of the Sprint power-on and power-off sounds is a little off-putting. I find the sound to be rather annoying, and it doesn't seem to match up with your boot animations very well. This annoyance was compounded after the ROM soft-rebooted several times within a few hours.

Just my $0.02. StarBurst does not have any of these kinks, even on the current version (which is about a month old.)

Keep up the good work!

PS: I'm back on SB 1.9.8r <3
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
He has already said he was working on fixing the toggles and working on getting the 4g toggle integrated in. Its not a simple click of a button when it comes to that. This all has already been brought to his attention remember he's doing this for free and your definitely in titled to your opinion but it just sounded like you just tore apart his whole rom. And in no way am I trying to be a di*k and sorry if I came off that way.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t3hcyborg:
I am aware that he does this for free, which is why I thanked him (and have donated to him before). My gripes are largely with the appearance and theme, not the underlying framework tweaks. Perhaps it does sound a bit cutthroat, and if it does, that's not what I intended.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] guyver2077:
ive tried flashing this rom twice and both times the phones goes black after the bootup animation.

It seems to have installed the recovery correctly but it just never loads into os
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Love the opinion. Just make sure you do realize this is a beta and he left alot of the themeing alone for themers to have there way with it. Have you tried Blazer 2.0?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t3hcyborg:
Yeah, my suggestions were in response to the Blazer 2.0 ROM from 12/11.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
WOW, I dont know what to say now. I guess I just never thought someone would feel that way about 2.0. But hey, everyone has there own taste. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
I figured it out on my own, but I'm not sure if I'm the first to post how to do it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] atomb:
I love this theme so please don't listen to that other guys, the more ICS in there the better!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
This.

I love the ICS theme.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vgamer4550:
+1 to this, I love the look and feel of ICS so the more you can add I am all for it.

That being said though, I think having a couple multiple themed versions probably will save you grief from the, "Can you change this red, or Green..etc"

I havent tried the Beta but v.2 has been running smooth, with only a few occasional hiccups.

I still dont get that great of battery life, but it is definitely getting better. My feeling is that Google Listen or maybe one of my Go Apps keeps sucking the life out of my batter, I'll just have to leave it app free for awhile to see.

Otherwise, looking forward to the update this weekend. Thanks again Phantom.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] I'M NOT YELLING:
Alright, I just flashed this ROM and had to revert back to stock after endless soft reboots. Didn't flash anything additional with the ROM and wiped everything beforehand. Any ideas on what can be causing endless soft reboots?

+1 for the ICS theme. Looks very well done. Only gripe is the missing 4G toggle but it sounds like you're already on that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vgamer4550:
I cant be certain, but I do know that it is said to flash this rom right on top of Blazer 2.0. So just wipe Cache, then Dalvik and flash away.

I do wish I knew why this phone in particular is so boot loop susceptible. It seems to be a common problem across roms, and happens most when alternate launchers are used but not selected as default. Im just ranting a little bit, but you would think that this would be something that Samsung and Sprint might take note of. Especially since you dont have to be rooted to use an alternate launcher.

Ok, Rant Over. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] I'M NOT YELLING:
Ah, forgot to mention I didn't flash the beta, I flashed 2.0 after a full wipe. Was on the stock launcher as well, didn't have time to get to another launcher before the soft reboots started happening.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dja2k:
Thanks Phantom! I flashed the beta over 2.0 and its working fine. One question though, any way to get the ICS Theme back or it isn't yet compatible with EL13?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JasonK75:
Agreed! The more ICS the better. I love it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I don't know how you could read your post and not come to that conclusion.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t3hcyborg:
It's simple, actually. I didn't talk **** about his ROM at all. I listed some things about it that I feel look unprofessional and unpolished. Most of these problems have to do with the theme or toggle apk, neither of which Phantom made. As a graphic designer, I still think the theme looks really bad. The alignment of things, the shadows, the progress bars, the way the 4G bars go up and to the left, while the cell bars go up and to the right, etc. What I provided were suggestions for improvement to make the ROM look and perform better. What Phantom did was code and tweak, and the only remark I had on that was the fact that it crashed a lot on my device. The wording may have sounded rude, but the message was clearly not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
As someone who has ran ICS on a phone I have to say that many aspects of this theme are dead on. There is only a few things that we can't be sure of like the toggles since AOSP ICS doesn't have these. So I have to say I like the ICS look. My only suggestion would be to if possible include the lock screen from the International sgs2 leak. If you haven't seen it. It looks pretty wild. But I don't even know if that's possible.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
After reading over your initial post about your disappointment with the ROM.

You could've cut down on it a lot. Because most of it was just opinion and preference. When the theme is exactly that, a theme. To me, it looks great. I could careless if the 4G bars went upward and towards the left. Does that affect the performance of the ROM overall? Not at all. So why mention about your preference? Lol.

I understood the toggle and the 'sound buggy-ness' part, but the rest was just a preference rant that shouldn't have really been brought up.
